The MOR/ryde wet bolt & shackle kit that I ordered at the Spring Rally arrived yesterday. Yippee!

Being that I always seem to be the guy that has missing parts in just about everything I ever buy, I opened up the box right away to check the contents. I matched up and sort of pre-assembled all of the parts to make sure that all of the nuts & bolts had been included. Now, I am confused, since I seem to have 16 extra 3/8-16 X 1" long bolts and matching lock nuts! There was no parts list or instructions included with the kit, so the only thing that I can think of is that they are for mounting equalizer assemblies to the frame, if I were to have purchased an RE kit as a retrofit. Anybody have a clue on this?

Another thing is, since there were no instructions of any kind, does anybody know what the torque specs are for the wet bolts and Z-brackets? I was going to call MOR/ryde yesterday, but it was too late after I was done checking out the kit.

Are you out there Stiles? You have done a number of these in the past, I think.
